Hi, I'm not sure if this goes here but here we go: I've just installed Batocera 40 for PS4 but bluetooth seems not work. The linux kernel itself seems to recognize the hardware, however the bluetooth service (if it is any since batocera don't use systemd) seems to be missing/not working? I've a PS4 11.00 firmware, with southbrigde Aeolia A2. I've downloaded the latest linux kernel for Aeolia => https://ps4linux.com/s/d8a1w Also I've downloaded the initramfs.cpio.gz for batocera => https://ps4linux.com/s/57lgt And of course, I've downloaded the batocera distro files => https://ps4linux.com/s/msuxx All the installation went ok. Its just the bluetooth... The DualSense 4 controller works fine via USB but not via bluetooth. Any device isn't recognizing PS4 bluetooth. This is what I get after executing bluetoothctl command: [root@BATOCERA /userdata/system]# bluetoothctl Waiting to connect to bluetoothd... Stuck there into the infinity... Then there is another command I've tried, batocera-bluetooth-agent : `[root@BATOCERA /userdata/system]# batocera-bluetooth-agent Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 177, in activate_name_owner return self.get_name_owner(bus_name) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 361, in get_name_owner return self.call_blocking(BUS_DAEMON_NAME, BUS_DAEMON_PATH, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 652, in call_blocking reply_message = self.send_message_with_reply_and_block( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NameHasNoOwner: Could not get owner of name 'org.bluez': no such name During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/batocera-bluetooth-agent", line 491, in <module> obj = bus.get_object("org.bluez", "/org/bluez") ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 241, in get_object return self.ProxyObjectClass(self, bus_name, object_path, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 250, in init self._named_service = conn.activate_name_owner(bus_name) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 182, in activate_name_owner self.start_service_by_name(bus_name) File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 277, in start_service_by_name return (True, self.call_blocking(BUS_DAEMON_NAME, BUS_DAEMON_PATH, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 652, in call_blocking reply_message = self.send_message_with_reply_and_block( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.bluez was not provided by any .service files` Also I've tried dmesg, filtering all bluetooth messages: [root@BATOCERA /userdata/system]# dmesg | grep luetooth [ 0.208982] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.22 [ 0.209004] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized [ 0.209012] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized [ 0.209018] Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized [ 0.209025] Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized [ 0.350274] Bluetooth: HCI UART driver ver 2.3 [ 0.350281] Bluetooth: HCI UART protocol H4 registered [ 0.350286] Bluetooth: HCI UART protocol BCSP registered [ 0.354367] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized [ 0.354376] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized [ 0.354380] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11 [ 0.354385] Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3 [ 0.354390] Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast [ 0.354396] Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized [ 0.354400] Bluetooth: HIDP (Human Interface Emulation) ver 1.2 [ 0.354406] Bluetooth: HIDP socket layer initialized [ 0.431294] Bluetooth: vendor=0x2df, device=0x912a, class=255, fn=2 So it seems that there are no bluetooth errors when kernel loads but the bluetooth itself does not work. Is there any way to check the bluetooth service? Some help is aprecitated, I don't know what to do. thanks

didix16 Thanks for these logs. I currently don't have a Bluetooth controller to test. Trying to get my hands on one. Then, maybe, I will look into this issue.

Thanks for you fast reply noob404 . Okay, no problem. I'll wait till you get something. I wish you luck.

Hi, I have a 9.0 PS Pro (Belize A2) with golden hen via esp32. I had no luck in booting my SSD with the files you suggested. Tried different payloads and different triggers (from Kameleon that I have on my esp to jb.ps4linux always using the 1vram pro payload. It gives me a black screen but the leds light in the color of the bzImage so I suspect that perhaps the problem is the monitor/tv thing that I´ve read here, as I only have a monitor where I use the PS4. Have tried ps4-linux-5.15.15-aeolia-belize_Full-LTO-LED-rose-fushia 5.15.15_codedwrench_BELIZE_overclock_2.1ghz_leds_bleu_lavande_saya 5.15.15_codedwrench_BELIZE_non_overclock_leds_bleu_lavande_saya_config_2.4 5.15.15_codedwrench_AEOLIA_belize_non_overclock_1594mhz_led_violette_saya all with no luck. Anyway, thanks for your time and effort.

taladro I answer myself in case someone else has the same problem. Finally what fixed the blackscreen problem was including on the root of the USB disk a file named bootargs.txt that just contains: "drm.edid_firmware=edid/1920x1080.bin" (thanks to https://github.com/whitehax0r/ArchLinux-PS4?tab=readme-ov-file ) , then before booting into batocera for the first time adjust the resolution on the ps4 pro to 1080p and disable HDR, then used the payload 5.15.15 (BETA - Vulkan support - HDD Support - by codedwrench) from https://github.com/Hakkuraifu/PS4Linux-Documentation?tab=readme-ov-file and that is how I got to boot Linux for the first time in my ps4pro 9.0

unfortunately, after booting nothing happened and I could not get to the step of running Batocera. After reboot everything was like nothing happened and if I try to install it again now it doesn´t start in console mode.

didix16 I also report the same issue in my PS4 Fat Belize Everything is working great, performance is awesome. Only caviat for now is the fact that I do not have neither WiFi neither Bluetooth. I tried several different kernel images but none works, even older ones. I have a Sinden Lightgun and I see that Batocera recognizes it, but since I don't have yet an USB Hub I couldn't test it properly to see if it works or not, but at least it is recognized as soon as I connect it

how long should it be taking to download the 1GB VRAM PSXITA payload ... I cannot tell if anything is ever happening or not. thanks

@noob404
I didn't find a compatible bzImage / initram combination for my config, yet:
PS4 Pro, 7016B, Belize B0, FW 5.05

I'm stuck at this screen. Haven't even entered the install process via batocera initram...

It's there a way to receive a compatible image combination for FW 5.05? Boot process doesn't work for me.

Thank you

noob404

xfortknoxX Have you tried the kernels in the Downloads section.

xfortknoxX

noob404 Thank you for your answer. Recently I managed to get batocera 40 running 🙂. It booted, and obviously executed the initramfs, after I installed batocera 40 on my USB-Stick manually via a linux machine (Before I was always trying the easy install method with progressbar). It's very strange, cause I didn't exchange bzImage or initramfs. Still using the same initramfs (special one for batocera in Downloads section).

But I have another issue.
The performance seems to be very poor. EspeciallyAll Gamecube games on dolphin have stuttering, run slow and have low fps and so on.

I guess it has to do with much too old and poorly optimised Linux payloads for this FW and the Pro console (I use 2GB or 3GB VRAM).
Problem is, I want to stay on FW 5.05. But I can't find optimised payloads for this FW (I need performance optimised ones, since its a Pro console). Instead for FW 9.00 and above you easily find those here and in the Downloads Section:
[https://ps4linux.com/ps4-pro-linux-payloads-double-fps-gaming-performance/]

Another big issue probably everyone has since 2022:
https://ps4linux.com/forums/d/110-batocera-scrapper-not-working
https://ps4linux.com/forums/d/35-batocera-for-ps4-v1-installation-tutorial/31
So you cannot scrape artwork for any game (maybe except games known at ARCADEDB).
But I'm definately connected to the Internet because Content downloader etc. work flawlessly.
It has to do with this batocera build. I found out, it has to do with missing API keys for the different scraper services (Screenscraper, theGameDB etc.) in this build.

I found out, that maybe Lbrpdx (member of the batocera.linux developer community) might share the keys with you, to get this issue solved.

I would appreciate it.

noob404

xfortknoxX How do I get in touch with him? But, please understand that I have been extremely busy with job hunting and such. I won't be able to put time into this anytime soon.

xfortknoxX

noob404 No problem, no hurry. He is available on the official Batocera.linux discord server:
https://discord.com/invite/ndyUKA5
Just send him a private message there. He answered me there, too.
Bye

So I seem to having several issues I feel like are all related. I am about to try the linux long install but wanted to get the easy way working in all honesty.

The problem is. When I follow the guide/video I make it to the point where I am suppose to insert some sort of usb and remove it. I dont understand what usb this is? I have tried the one with the bzimage on it etc but nothing happens... I tried just clicking ok but it says I didnt do the steps properly.

I then tried to go around this and use a payload injector on the pc and can get into what appears to be linux attempting to install something but it fails with either a rescue shell or run /init as init or somthing and just stalls out. Also when I do this the screen has 8 Tux's at the top and looks different than the install screen on the video. No question about wifi etc.

I tried a few BzImage files for my SB and cannot seem to figure this out.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

noob404

liquidbings Screenshots and an exact log of the actual error is appreciated.

liquidbings

I've been trying to get the logger to work but I seem to be misunderstanding something there as well. I figured out what the usb I didnt have was and made that to match the install on the video but I am still getting the run /init as init
I just tried the 4.14..93 as well the text is a bit smaller and no /init messange but it just hangs in about the same spot. "all tests were successful"

I know little about what is going on in the background of this but it seems like the intramfs file isnt doing the correct thing?

Can anyone explain how to get the logger working? I tried connnecting putty using a couple ports and no luck connecting.

noob404

liquidbings Try the kernels and initramfs images here - https://ps4linux.com/downloads/ for your model.
If that doesn't work as well, try these:-

Another distro.
Another drive.

liquidbings

those are the ones I've been trying. should I delete and try again? Also I will try another drive

noob404

liquidbings Report back if another drive works. Try another model/brand.

I followed are quick guid at installing batocera on my ps4 I got a 1tb sdd that has transfer speed of 1gb poer second I lanch the 1gb payload and I get to the intertram screen and it it says it can not reconise my usb device how do I get it to stop doing that so can run batocera on my ps4.

triki1

I use this ini and bz, I'have an Aeolia2

Good day kind Sir/Ma'am😇
Can ps4, linux system distro's, run in 720p full screen for better performance?

NightAudio

thanks triki1. I fiqured it out on pure accident but I use a mac computer so I renamed my 1tb ssd to psxitarch and launched the payload. not I can not get my ps4 controller to pair via bluetooth so how do I do that I keep doing the automatic way it will not pair and I even did it the manual way it will not pair and I even tried doing through the terminal via ssh it will not pair can please help me figure this out.

triki1

Yes, Bluetooth doesn't work for me either, I use USB.

Elokuba

triki1 my too on endevour-gaming es-de

triki1

ES-DE is very good, I use it, every time on m'y distro.

NightAudio

what is es-de.
